Chinese Seal Carving.
I first met the trainer, Malik Mazlan last year during one of my workshops. He attended the session and approached me afterwards for a collaboration. I then get to know that he is a student majoring in Chinese calligraphy who traveled all the way to Beijing to pursue his passion and was accepted in one of the oldest university there. He told me of his intention on reviving the art of Islamic seal carving just like the golden days of kesultanan melayu. He wanted me to help him out on the Arabic calligraphy script while he do the carving.
We met Dr Annabelle Gallop ( a researcher on islamic seals ) a few months ago and asked her for her opinion on this project. Unfortunately she told us, the materials used for islamic seals are hard to find. So we thought of an alternative. We came up with what we are best in and so here it is, the first batch of Islamic seal inspired workshop. Calligraphy carving on soap stone.

It's very hard to start something you really spent much time to improve your skills at.
I stopped Calligraphy since I don't remember when, so have to be patient to return to the spot I had reached.
Wish me luck.
@saraosama741 my younger pretty sis bought this practice sketch a year ago, I am really grateful and sorry to take all this time to use it 💚😅 #calligraphy#arabiccalligraphy#inked#sketch#sisters#instaart#islamicart

Sharjah’s pavilion at the Paris Book Fair is hosting a series of workshops and sessions highlighting the UAE’s culture, literature, and rich legacy of traditions.
The workshops have brought together Emirati conceptual artists Abdul Rahim Salem and Salem Al Junaibi, and calligrapher Khalid Al Jallaf, Chairman of the Emirates Society of Arabic Calligraphy and Islamic Ornamentation, who are entertaining the large turnout of French visitors every day, with their live drawings and Arabic calligraphy.
The Emirati artists also introduced visitors to the Emirati fine arts movement, in a way that has never been experienced. They created live paintings as a form of visual performance art, sharing their conceptual experiences and expertise on how they deal with colour, build form and achieve visual balance in their works.
